Week 40 - Argo

Heart racing until the end, even though I know what happens. Could they really have cut it any closer?
Sneaky Ben Affleck, stealing evidence...

• What made me choose this movie?
• Have been wanting to see it since it came out in the theaters. Recommendations from almost everyone I know (and the Oscars didn't hurt).
• Describe this movie in one word. JUST ONE.
• Intense.
• Would I recommend it to a friend (or talk ad nauseum with my friends about it)?
• Recommend? Yes.
• Talk ad nauseum? Yes. I have so many questions on the pivotal scene of the movie.
• Did I look anyone or anything up from the movie on IMDB or Wikipedia?
• I didn't think I needed to, but I'm SO GLAD I DID, as I now know that Lee Schatz was played by Lucas from Empire Records. I couldn't tell through the giant mustache. Huzzah!
• If I was trapped on a desert island, which character from this movie would I want to be trapped with and why?
• Sahar saved everyone. True hero of the movie.
• Did this movie provoke any outward emotional reactions? Crying, laughing out loud, throwing crap across the room, etc./et al. (Warning - I cry A LOT.)
• Some heart pounding, tears and a few chuckles from Lester and John.
• Would I stop to watch this movie at any point during a showing on TBS?
• Potentially.
• Would I buy it on sale at Target for $5 or less (or even splurge on it full price)?
• Not sure I can plan to go through the emotional rollercoaster again.
